New Course – Dyslexia Awareness

Did you know that 15-20% of the population is affected by dyslexia. That means that on average, every classroom will have 3-5 students struggling with this disorder. Our new Dyslexia Awareness course by Cathy Dodge Smith can help prepare all educators to better meet the needs of these students. The goal of this course is to introduce school staff members to the condition of dyslexia and to methods of supporting students with dyslexia.

• The definitions of dyslexia
• Methods of supporting students with dyslexia
• Roles and responsibilities
• Dyslexia and learning styles
• Dyslexia and the future
